MIAMI — The fifth edition of the Miami Grand Prix delivered its biggest spectacle yet, both from the environment surrounding Hard Rock Stadium to the action on track. Though weather threatened to put a damper on Formula One’s return, the skies stayed just clear enough for Kimi Antonelli to deliver another bit of magic.
With a start time three hours earlier than previously scheduled, the race still proved chaotic right from the start. Antonelli, despite yet another poor start off the line, rallied back after losing the lead on the opening lap to win from pole position. But early crashes from Pierre Gasly and Isack Hadjar led to shake-ups all over the grid, and with it, a fair number of unexpected winners and disappointed losers.
